    Another great video, and much needed! I’m shocked more people don’t realize how good he is on the defensive end. His on ball has room for growth but his size and strength should give him a good opportunity to shine there too.

      @@christianmcallister2829 JDubs is a probably q better overall player now than Dray in his prime tbh. Im just talkiing as a small ball center, thats all. Gotta give credit where its due, Draymond was an integral piece to how the warriors changed basketball into a small ball era. Damn near every team now puts a 6'6-6'7 guy at the PF because of him and teams are always looking for their own "death" small ball lineup. He rebounds, blocks shots, and guards the interior better than JDub. I don't think JDub will have to do those things with a hopefully healthy Chet & Hartenstein over the next few years.

    Nobody on OKC is winning Defensive Player of the Year because half the team could be nominated and nobody can decide which guy is 'the' guy.
    SGA gets so little attention for his defensive skills because everyone just wants to view him as the star who puts up all the points. But he is a huge part of why the defense works. Then Dort is the guy you have guarding the best player on the court and the leader of the defense. Then Chet is just... Chet...
    Then you have guys like Alex Caruso and Cason Wallace just casually being first class NBA defenders often times coming off the bench.
    So JDub gets lost in that conversation sometimes, but the whole team is top notch on defense and they are only getting better. We will probably see a long stretch of opposing teams only putting up 80ish points at some point this season. When Chet and Hartenstein are back probably.

      I think Chet was arguably Dpoy before he got injured. Cason Wallace looks like if he played 30 minutes a game he could be a Dpoy candidate lol. The dude is insane.

      Chet anchors this defense so much too. Last year it elevated our defense so much. I’m hoping that with Chet out, our guys will see how they can help Chet more. Something Dub said was working harder and not just settling with funneling players into Chet.

    @BobHadababyitzaboi Місяць тому

    Like others I would say they are all great defenders... But as far as okc's defensive ace? That would actually be a debate between Dort and Caruso, but if Williams keeps having defensive performances like he did against N.O. then he'd be able to be considered for our defensive ace, yes he's been solid before that game but not necessarily a stand out... Hell chet when he's been in has been more of a consistent defensive nightmare, really chet is probably one of if not the best rim defender in the league right now. This is just an example of why the thunder will most likely be the champs this year with potential to build a dynasty and bring in multiple rings possibly even win multiple rings in a row... #gothunder
